You can in a sense get paid for becoming a foster parent. This is something I'm seriously looking into. I want to take in…"
Jennifer Click commented on Missy Hollingsworth's blog post 'In Laws...'"Yes, my first thought in reading your post (besides feeling bad for having to live in and deal with these circumstances), is it sounds like she is dealing with common symptoms of Alzheimer's. as a mental health practitioner and a daughter of a…"
Jeremy Myob replied to Belle Rose's discussion 'EMPOWERING WOMEN!!!!!!!!'"I really think that people are put upon by society. Men and women together provide the next generation. Women are not expected to do it at their own expense, that is what child support is. Men are expected to do it for no reward,…"
DR replied to Ron Humphrey's discussion 'insane comment following tornadoes in Oklahoma'"It's completely unsurprising to me. Religion sucks and blows at the same time.

Welcome to TA
Our Radio Show
 This week on the Think Atheist Radio Show we have our interview with Dr. Sebastian Seung! Dr. Seung is a professor of computational neuroscience at MIT. A leading researcher in the emerging field of connectomics– the field of study that is attempting to map the connections in our brains– he has made important advances in artificial intelligence, neuroscience, neuroeconomics, and statistical physics. His recently published book, Connectome, does just what the subtitle says, explains how the brain's wiring makes us who we are. With implications for personality, identity, intelligence, memory, and even disorders such as autism and schizophrenia, this is a wide-ranging and fascinating book on a subject that would be right at home in a sci-fi movie but is in fact real! Don't miss this discussion!
And don't miss our recent interview with Dr. Jessica Pierce! Working in bioethics, Dr. Pierce is the co-author of Wild Justice: The Moral Lives of Animals. What does it say about human morality and what does it mean for the study of morality that many animals demonstrate behaviors that can only be described with words like "justice", "fairness", and "altruism"? Make sure to check out all of our past shows and see who's coming up in the next few weeks! You can also grab the shows from our iTunes page. |
